WARNING
Product rupture can cause serious injury.
Do not connect regulator to bottled gas.
Do not exceed maximum primary pressure rating.
Installation:
1. Regulator should be installed with reasonable accessibility for
service whenever possible — repair service kits are available.
Keep pipe or tubing lengths to a minimum with inside clean
and free of dirt and chips. Pipe joint compound should be
used sparingly and applied only to the male pipe — never into
the female port. Do not use PTFE tape to seal pipe joints —
pieces have a tendency to break off and lodge inside the unit,
possibly causing malfunction.
2. Install regulator so that air flows from “IN” to “OUT” as marked
on the regulator. Installation must be upstream from devices it
is to service (lubricator, valve, cylinder or tool), and mounted
closely to these devices. Mounting may be in any position.
3. Gauge ports are located on both sides of the regulator body
for your convenience. It is necessary to install a gauge or pipe
plug into each port during installation.
4. Remove plastic plug from vent hole in bonnet.
5. For protection against rust, pipe scale and other foreign matter,
install a filter on the upstream (high pressure) side as closely
to the regulator as possible.
